213
00:20:25,890 --> 00:20:32,980
anywhere from 1 pixel radiused two
pixels and that again depends on the
214
00:20:32,980 --> 00:20:36,490
resolution of your image so with
high-resolution imaging can go higher on
215
00:20:36,490 --> 00:20:40,100
the the radius with a low resolution
image go lower on the radius on this
216
00:20:40,100 --> 00:20:41,250
case and pick something
217
00:20:41,250 --> 00:20:45,510
more than the middle here in around 1.4
and here you can see all the dodging and
218
00:20:45,510 --> 00:20:50,970
burning essentially that we've done so
we're going to select different light a
219
00:20:50,970 --> 00:20:56,170
candle in related well more than 10
sharpening I find that did it late to
220
00:20:56,170 --> 00:20:59,560
produce a little bit less artifacts and
it's more subtle so that's usually what
221
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:04,330
I'll go with now resuming here actually
compared before and after we see that
222
00:21:04,330 --> 00:21:07,510
you know we do bring in quite a bit of
sharpness now
223
00:21:07,510 --> 00:21:10,360
couple of things obviously this is a
very shallow depth of field portrait so
224
00:21:10,360 --> 00:21:13,960
we don't want to show everywhere in a
studio portrait you probably want to
225
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:18,590
apply that shooting at 11:16
226
00:21:18,590 --> 00:21:24,620
shot this I think around 1.8 so I can
take out the sharpening in this this
227
00:21:24,620 --> 00:21:28,590
background portion in some of the slower
here because it's already blurry anyways
228
00:21:28,590 --> 00:21:32,670
so for someone to do some steel prices
down I usually start with around 50
229
00:21:32,670 --> 00:21:38,250
percent I rarely if ever the this at a
hundred percent and verify that by
230
00:21:38,250 --> 00:21:42,950
making sure that we're not creating too
many artifacts around the eyes and I
231
00:21:42,950 --> 00:21:47,500
think that's okay basically it's worth
checking around the eyes I want to make
232
00:21:47,500 --> 00:21:51,210
sure that here it doesn't look really
kind of grainy and ugly and right now it
233
00:21:51,210 --> 00:21:55,300
still feels a little too short for me so
I'll take it down to around 30 percent
234
00:21:55,300 --> 00:21:59,070
actually and that's usually where I end
up this is in the range of 30 to 40
235
00:21:59,070 --> 00:22:04,430
percent I think that just gives you a
nice little sharpness without overdoing
236
00:22:04,430 --> 00:22:04,780
it
237
00:22:04,780 --> 00:22:10,920
your portraits to be super sharp and
just to be on the safe side here I am
238
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,810
gonna take it out of his background
portion so hold down Option add a layer
239
00:22:14,810 --> 00:22:19,610
mask we're going to select a nice big
brush
240
00:22:19,610 --> 00:22:32,030
higher capacity up to a hundred
centuries want to take it right out of
241
00:22:32,030 --> 00:22:34,660
these areas is gonna brush it right out
242
00:22:34,660 --> 00:22:38,120
same down here in the hair it's all
blurred out anyways there's no reason to
243
00:22:38,120 --> 00:22:46,530
apply sharpening to it and degrade her
image quality as well basically we're
244
00:22:46,530 --> 00:22:50,440
just kind of concentrating it on the
main area so you just really shopping
245
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,540
kind of the eyes or lips a little bit
and bring out some of the freckles in
246
00:22:54,540 --> 00:23:02,669
areas where there sharp ok so I think
that's pretty good for a sharpening so
247
00:23:02,669 --> 00:23:08,419
now that we've got that just sharpened
and it is a good idea to label all of
248
00:23:08,419 --> 00:23:16,559
your layers yet because you know how to
work through some of these images the
249
00:23:16,559 --> 00:23:20,830
number of layers can grow quite large so
it just helps to keep you organized and
250
00:23:20,830 --> 00:23:23,950
if you are developed delivering this
image to a client you know if if you're
251
00:23:23,950 --> 00:23:27,890
an actual retoucher they do like to see
all those layers nicely labeled so they
252
00:23:27,890 --> 00:23:31,790
can pull things off turn them off turn
them on and just see that something
253
00:23:31,790 --> 00:23:36,620
maybe they don't use so now the next
area we're gonna move onto is the actual
254
00:23:36,620 --> 00:23:41,080
toning of the image so we basically when
I just our colors to make it look a
255
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:45,040
little nicer so to start with that i'm
gonna create again another group here
256
00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:50,320
called toning because we are going to
make a number of adjustments here and
257
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:55,480
with Tony again there is a video called
mastering color adjustments and I do
258
00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:00,130
recommend that you watch that video just
because he'll go into a lot more detail
259
00:24:00,130 --> 00:24:03,309
and a couple of different techniques
that we won't cover here here I'll
260
00:24:03,309 --> 00:24:05,790
probably be using maybe two different
things for different techniques there
